About VKB Group
VKB is a South African agricultural enterprise with the unique vision to focus on alliances with industry-related stakeholders. These alliances have developed into the dynamic utilization of a wide range of agricultural value chain solutions.
Producers in the area in which we conduct business own and control the VKB Group. Our strategy therefore remains focused on keeping the company as an authentic agricultural producer business, which could also add value for a broader base of general consumers.
The VKB Group continues to capitalize on its rich heritage of almost 100 years by applying the sound cooperative principles of the past. These principles ensure that any association with the Group remains a valuable experience, not only for its shareholders but also for its suppliers, employees, and customers.
